Osteoarthritis Paid Clinical Trials in Virginia

Study investigators propose to investigate if a bony injection of pain medication during a knee replacement will help pain levels following primary knee replacement surgery. To investigate this, 86 patients will be enrolled. Half of the patients will receive a bony injection of antibiotics with morphine (pain medication) while the other half will receive a bony injection of antibiotics with placebo (no pain medication). Following surgery, patient pain levels and pain medication consumption will be measured. The injection is intraosseous meaning in the bone. The needle pierces the bone and the medication is injected into the bone. The site of injection is on the anterior (front) of the upper portion of the tibia. The medications are Vancomycin (antibiotic) and Morphine (pain medication) which are mixed in separate syringes and then injected. Intraosseous vancomycin is standard of care while intraosseous vancomycin with morphine is also standard of care, depending on operating surgeon. Read Less

Primary Objective: To assess the efficacy of ZILRETTA on pain following an intra-articular (IA) injection in subjects with glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA) relative to normal saline placebo Secondary Objective: * To assess the efficacy of ZILRETTA on pain following an IA injection in subjects with glenohumeral OA relative to triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension, immediate release (TCA-IR) and normal saline placebo * To assess the safety of ZILRETTA in subjects with glenohumeral OA relative to normal saline placebo and TCA-IR Read Less

This multicenter, prospective, interventional trial is designed to assess the outcome of subjects with symptomatic knee osteoarthritis (OA) that are randomized to treatment with either genicular artery embolization (GAE) using Embosphere Microspheres or steroid injection over a period of 24 months.

This study is a prospective, multicenter (up to 4 sites), randomized, double-blind, two-arm study. Forty-five (45) patients will be randomized to receive a single 4-6 ml intra-articular (IA) injection of either the output of ACP Max™ (n=30) or 6 ml of Depo-Medrol® (methylprednisolone acetate) (n=15).

The objective of this study is to collect and evaluate long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes data in order to better understand the safety and performance of the shoulder arthroplasty over time. This study will follow subjects long-term for a minimum of 10-years, without an early-term restriction on the amount of time they will be followed. Read Less

The purpose of this proposed study is to investigate both the acute and chronic response of frontal plane knee moment after gait retraining and to assess the effects on the biomechanics of the contralateral side. Fifty-one patients diagnosed with tibiofemoral joint osteoarthritis (TFJ OA) will be recruited to participate in the proposed study. Participants will complete baseline trials to assess gait kinematic and kinetic parameters. Following baseline, each participant will perform six conditions of the foot progression gait or three conditions of the trunk lean gait modifications to determine which strategy is most effective in reducing frontal plane knee moment. Participants will then be randomized to either the control or experimental group based on their identified preferred strategy. Participants will complete eight gait retraining sessions using patient-specific gait modifications (tailored foot progression and tailored lateral trunk lean), or normal gait (control) during the training period. A fading feedback design will be implemented. Real-time haptic biofeedback will be provided on every step during the first two weeks and reduced by 25% every subsequent two weeks. No feedback will be provided during baseline and at testing sessions. Measures of pain and function will also be collected at all testing sessions. Variables of interest include ankle, knee, hip sagittal and frontal plane moments. In addition, sagittal and frontal plane impulse will also be assessed. Descriptive statistics will be calculated for foot progression angle, trunk lean angle, frontal and sagittal plane hip, knee, and ankle angles as well as moments. Descriptive statistics for frontal plane knee impulse will also be calculated. A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) will be conducted to compare frontal plane knee moment, frontal plane knee impulse and the absolute sagittal plane moment will be compared across three groups at four different time points. Repeated measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) will be conducted to compare both sagittal and frontal plane joint biomechanics for the contralateral limb. The p-value will be set at .05. Read Less
